    Nola Leary would have been content to stay in Kilcairy, Ireland, healing villagers at her family’s clinic with a mix of magic and modern medicine. But a series of ill-timed omens and a deathbed promise to her grandmother have sent her on a quest to Half-Moon Hollow, Kentucky, to secure her family’s magical potency for the next generation. Her supernatural task? To unearth four artifacts hidden by her grandfather before a rival magical family beats her to it. Complication One: The artifacts are lost somewhere in vampire Jane Jameson’s occult bookshop. Complication Two: Her new neighbor, Jed Trudeau, keeps turning up half-naked at the strangest times....

    Sadie Hutchins loves her job at the Kentucky Tourism Commission. Not only could her co-workers double as the cast of Parks and Recreation, but she loves finding the unusual sites, hidden gems, and just-plain-odd tourist attractions of her home state. She’s a shoo-in for the director’s job when her boss retires at the end of the year…until hotshot Josh Vaughn shows up to challenge her for the position. Josh is all sophisticated polish while Sadie’s country comfort, and the two have very different ideas of what makes a good campaign.

    It has the rhythm of her other books.

    The Master of Natchez, Mississippi has a nasty problem on his hands. Rogue vampires - those who follow the Naturaleza and believe that humans should be nothing more than prey to be hunted - are terrorizing his city. Luckily, he knows the perfect skinwalker to call in to take back the streets. But what he doesn’t tell Jane is that there’s something different about these vamps. Something that makes them harder to kill - even for a pro like Jane.

    What made the experience of listening to Blood Trade the most enjoyable?

    I wasn't sure when I first started this series I liked the two parts of Jane but the more I listened the more I enjoyed the duality. Now I can not get enough and hate that it takes so long in between books.


    What other book might you compare Blood Trade to and why?

    I am not sure there is another series exactly like this one. It is similar, I guess, to Laurell Hamilton's Necromancer series without "jumping the shark" with over raunchy sex. Faith Hunter keeps the intrigue of sizzle and has you wanting more.


    What about Khristine Hvam’s performance did you like?

    Ms. Hvam, does a great job of getting to the right inflection and tone of each character. She does a great job with these books and I could not imagine another voice reading them.


    Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

    I loved the conversation between the Pastor and Jane. I will probably quote that out in the world.


    Any additional comments?

    Start at the first book and enjoy them all. Please Ms. Hunter write quickly. I am so excited for the next book!

    Manhattan apparel designer Roxy Rae Vaughn, who's also a still-in-the-closet, country line dancing queen, wants to be a fashion success story. Tired of being nothing more than a Fifth Avenue up-and-comer, thanks to her elitist parents, Roxy moves to Nashville, Tennessee and opens a boutique in a local tractor supply store, the only retail space she can afford. Short on cash and way, way down on luck, she rear-ends a pick-up truck belonging to a tomato-growin', bootscootin' cowboy.

    What disappointed you about Bootscootin' Blahniks?

    Poor D.D. Scott I could not get past the ignorant narrator. She could not pronounce even the most common word above a 3rd grade level and her pedantic performance is painful.


    Would you be willing to try another book from D. D. Scott? Why or why not?

    If she gets a different narrator


    Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Christine Padovan?

    Amanda Ranconi


    What character would you cut from Bootscootin' Blahniks?

    Could not even get that far.


    Any additional comments?

    Mentally I did my best to hear a different person reading but could not get past it. It would probably be worth it to get this recoreded by someone else.

    Iris Scanlon, Half-Moon Hollow's only daytime vampire concierge, knows more about the undead than she'd like. Running all their daylight errands - from letting in the plumber to picking up some chilled O neg - gives her a look at the not-so-glamorous side of vampire life. Her rules are strict; relationships with vamps are strictly business, not friendship - and certainly not anything else. But then she finds her newest client, Cal, poisoned on his kitchen floor, and only Iris can help.

    Would you listen to The Care and Feeding of Stray Vampires again? Why?

    Absolutely! The dialogue is smart and funny she makes this world believable and draws you in.


    What was one of the most memorable moments of The Care and Feeding of Stray Vampires?

    There are several memorable moments and as a Molly fan it brings in the peripheral characters that from the "Nice Girls" series and how they fit in.


    Have you listened to any of Amanda Ronconi’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

    She does southern sarcasim better than anyone.


    Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

    Yes and I did.


    Any additional comments?

    I more than recommend Molly Harper as an author. Her dialogue is inspired and fun. LOve her and her work.
